I had exactley the same problem and solved in the very same way.
A lot slower and alot faster but it worked.

Tried with changing encoding and so on, but -d made my difference.

Is there any way to go around this? I dont have to be forced to take backup
with -d if our database gets bigger.. if avoidable.
